STARTING A ROLEPLAYWhen you make a roleplay, you should add the following details into the first post so that the potential participants can be made aware of the details. Roleplays
DO NOT have to be based in Karlendor but I would like any that are created to have a similar feel to them. They must have a lot of thought put into them and contain lots of information. I would like to see posts worth of introduction for explanation purposes but this isn't necessary.
Private ThreadsPrivate threads are acceptable and I higly recommend them for some types of roleplays when there are two interested parties on frequently. 1-on-1 roleplays are a neat idea, but always discuss the roleplays before hand with the other person involved so that you get the most out of the roleplay.

I am involved in several 1-on-1 roleplays by PM that I particularly enjoy so do not dismiss using the guild for finding others with similar ideas for a private roleplay. The Barton Forums can get particularly busy at times so it can be advantageous to have a place to find others like yourself. I have started a thread if you are interested. Feel free to post on this Barton thread and I will add you to the database:

It would be good to have some form of introduction just to give lurkers a good indication of what the game is about.

If you have a restriction on the numbers of participants you must add R = (number of players allowed excluding the creator). If there are no restrictions you must add P = O.
Roleplay StyleIf there roleplay is open (ie. not requiring the creator to steer the events) add RpO. If it is creator geared put in RpG.
